Nice. My next-door neighbor has one similar to that one, maybe a few years newer. I get to work on it and borrow it typically a few times per year, it has a big bagging attachment that comes in handy. My standard lawn machine is a 22-inch walk behind; it's a three-mile round-trip hike through the yard.

near Des Moines

Well, if Dustnado chasing is a thing I'm the king lol. I counted a Bakers Dozen in my travels today. Some pretty stout ones too, a couple hundred feet tall and 10 to 20 feet wide. Some rated a 5 on the limb whipping scale when they ran into woods from the Dust Fields. Probably scared the crap out of some squirrels. Just call me Tweed Rimmer..... The Dustnado Chasing King

Three tornado warnings in the Des Moines metro area

Large tornado near Oklahoma/Kansas border (same as previous post)

Good ole Craftsman GT 3000. Almost 30, first cut of the season.

this. I cut the cable about 6-7 years ago, and 4 years ago replaced the AM/FM/cassette radio in my antique Honda with a carplay touch-screen hands-free aftermarket unit with back-up camera that connects to my phone the internet is a much more efficient time-waster than teevee, where you have to surf through 57 channels to figure out there's nothing on worth watching; there is always something on youtube etc. worth wasting time on

Since there's no active severe thread in the other subforum I'll just it here. PDS warned storm approaching Braman OK.

me either people still watch tee vee ?

It’s not that difficult these days. Would be much more impressive if it were 1985 and not 2025. Lots of sources for news and sports without having to use traditional media. And I used to work in radio…

The "media" know what (too many) people want to see and hear, so that's what we get. Informed / entertained; does it matter which ? Profit is the goal.

I don’t

Mammoth got 16 inches of snow earlier this week. Probably another month of winter to go for them.

We should move to the Catskills

Dwagner....that is crazy insane. Well, you all can thank me for the copious amounts of cold weather incoming. My tomatoes and peppers arrived in the mail yesterday. They are about to be on the struggle bus in about 7 days. Thankfully, rain appears to be on tap. Now, let's go watch some NFL Draft.

*Almost* perfect for working outside, today

So you don’t watch any TV? Or listen to any radio? Wow…hmm.

lots of rotation on the live cam

Topeka Kansas about to get hit good https://www.ksnt.com/weathercam-network-west-topeka/

@MN Transplant and any other hydrologists, is there a way to determine water table depths for a specific location? And I mean very specific. A friends backyard in the neighborhood is very wet and there are no pipes in that area of the yard.

18z came in wetter on most models for the Carolina’s this weekend

Now this I can get into. Actually more than a half inch. I'm at barely 1.25" in the past 30 days.

WB 12Z EPS....10 day period ending May 8. Cool and wet outlook.

I find it disgusting that this information gets tossed out there from the “media”. This has nothing to do with you or I or anyone else. This is entirely between vrabel and his wife. It’s no one else’s business. Why I’ve stopped watching or listening to radio or tv
